So I was playing LoL when accidentally my Battery charger got unplugged and as you all may know, my computer didnt use the max power for this and so my fps in the game started to drop. However I immediately plugged the battery charger back and to my surprise it was still laggy. When I used to play with my battery plugged it went from 70~110 FPS all the time, never dropped. Now after this incident, even with the battery plug on i sometimes drop to 44 FPS...
Any1 know how to tweak my battery power settings so that it can use full power all the time? Any help appreciated!

The battery is not capable of powering the laptop at full power. There is ways of overriding this, but I wouldn't suggest trying them as you have a good chance of damaging your battery.

I don't just want to overrited it. I just want it to return how it used to be because right now it doesnt make sense that it is plugged in and plays at way lower fps than it used to.
